Syracuse, N.Y. -- The Syracuse man charged in the death of a mechanic who stopped to help a motorist on I-690 and was struck by a car in early November won't appear in court for another week.

Syracuse City Court Judge Jeffrey Merrill granted a one-week adjournment in the case against Daniel Wall, 33. Charles Lupia, Wall's attorney, requested the break in City Court on Tuesday. Wall is now scheduled to appear on Dec. 10.

Wall is listed as being held in the Onondaga County Justice Center in lieu of $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond.

The crash happened Nov. 3 after Ryan Dearnaley, 27, stopped at about 4 a.m. to help a motorist whose Audi had broken down on the side of I-690 near the Teall Avenue exit. Police said Wall crashed his Mercury Mountaineer into the back of Dearnaley's Toyota, which slammed into the Audi.
